GC Leaderboard question

Hey guys, very new runner here, love this game and love speedrunning it! So I got a 1:37:56 today in GC - Empire on PS2 and the next best time is about an hour and a half slower but it's listed as 2nd above my run. Is that just a mistake or is there a reason for it? I noticed that run was on PC, could that be it? Just curious, thanks very much :)

Hi Braf,

Although I am not 100% certain of this, my assumption is that it has to do with the fact that your runs do not have information for "time without loads." This is the only thing I can think of because I have been searching the forums and have not found a thread with a similar issue. If you take a look at the Any% w/ bonuses, some of the runs have the same time for with and without loads. Since being accurate with your time without loads would not affect your ranking at all, perhaps you could do that? The best way to find out would be to get in contact with/wait for a mod, but I figured I would throw in my two cents.

Interestingly enough, I just checked the leaderboards and that must have been updated while I was typing. Grats!

Hey Braf, sorry I did not noticed that earlier. What happened is that the time without loads takes priority on our leaderboard and since you did not submitted anything for the time without loads it got push down to last place by default.

Submitting runs without having a "time without loads" is perfectly fine but make sure to put the same RTA time that you got as your "time without loads" next time. :)
